Apparatus for separating non-magnetic materials of different densities

摘要

An apparatus for separating non-magnetic materials of different densities, which apparatus includes a material separating portion, in which a magnetic fluid is retained in a magnetic field having a gradient in a vertical direction. In this apparatus, a single conveyor is jointly used for the supply, and charging of materials to be separated, into the material separating portion, and the transporting of floating materials of a low density through the magnetic fluid and their recovery outside.
